Definitely not one of the best looking cars ever made but it's four-cam, 24-valve, normally aspirated 3-litre V6 had a power output which was quoted at 410bhp at 9000rpm! Something which made it one if not the most powerful, natural aspirated rally car ever.

Why that makes him perfectly qualified to claim that Vauxhall, Ford or any other company who's name doesn't begin with "Volks" and ends with "wagen" is producing "crap" cars without providing any logical argument or evidence to back up his statement, don't you think?

Car 90 and 93 but in the end, caused a chain reaction which got more cars involved
Watching car 90 from the start of the race, it was quite obvious that it was imminent that it would crash sooner or later. During lap 5 in T2 (or 1 if it's counted as a chicane), car 90 -after a faulty move on the line 09- spun and then continued on to reverse -when quite a chunk of the grid was a fraction of a second behind- right into the rear left of car 93 which due to this, also spun. Unfortunately it didn't ended there with other cars also crashing because of the same reason.
